You could form a combat platoon with all the straw men in this posting.

Yeah, it is. But you get props (from me, at least) for trying to address it.

My most immediate criticism of it is that you are explicitly discouraging reporting of harassment if it was done in private, no one saw it, etc. If a victim of a harassing incident can't provide whatever you are considering as "hard evidence", you're basically asking them to penalize themselves...

Our friends over at Hero Games have graciously agreed to help us convert The Day After Ragnarok for the brand new 6th Edition of the...

Aron Head over at the very fine blog The Ideology of Madness has taken a bit of a shine to The Day After Ragnarok, and has interviewed Kenneth Hite about the history and development of the setting. He's also running a contest (that Atomic Overmind Press is sponsoring), with a PDF/Print combo of...

You read that right…it’s finally done. The Day After Ragnarok setting for Savage Worlds is finally HERE! The PDF is now on sale in the Atomic Overmind webstore, and you can also pre-order the print version, either for direct shipping to your house, or for pickup at either the Origins Game Fair...
